Here is a graphic on how various reasoning technologies fit the practical requirements for reasoning discussed below: This proved surprisingly controversial during correspondence with colleagues from the Vulcan work on SILK and its evolution at http://www.coherentknowledge.com. The requirements that motivated this were the following:

If you are using one of the more popular rules engines, chances are you can blame me. I popularized the technology of forward-chaining production rules based on the Rete Algorithm. Others have certainly contributed; my path is the one that led to open-source implementations and many commercial products, including those of IBM, Oracle, SAP, TIBCO, [...]

Our efforts at acquiring deep knowledge from a college biology text have enabled us to answer a number of questions that are beyond what has been previously demonstrated. For example, we’re answering questions like: Are the passage ways provided by channel proteins hydrophilic or hydrophobic? Will a blood cell in a hypertonic environment burst? If [...]

I received notice of a Victorian government position offering $106k, as follows, today: BRMS Developer (WebSphere ILOG JRules) You will have proven experience as a BRMS Developer within a Java/JEE environment using IBM‘s WebSphere ILOG JRules platform. You will have implementation experience using integration technologies (e.g. Web Services, JMS) and have the ability to liaise [...]

FICO reported 9% growth in revenues year over year. the bulk of revenues and all the growth was in pre-configured Decision Management applications FICO score revenues were half as much, w/ B2B growing as B2C (myFICO) waned tools revenues were less than half again as much and flat optimization (XPress) was up Blaze Advisor was [...]

Fair Isaac’s recent press release touts the “key differentiator” of Blaze Advisor 7.0 as: the innovative Decision Graph visual metaphor, a decision tree management solution that makes even the most complex rule sets easier to manage and explain Of course, a decision tree is really more like a root system (i.e., the tree is upside [...]

If you are considering the use of any of the following business rules management systems (BRMS): IBM Ilog JRules Red Hat JBoss Rules Fair Isaac Blaze Advisor Oracle Policy Automation (i.e., Haley in Siebel, PeopleSoft, etc.) Oracle Business Rules (i.e., a derivative of JESS in Fusion) you can learn a lot by carefully examining this [...]

The folks from Knowledge Partners have a post that I found thanks to Sandy Kemsley, whose blog often provides good pointers. This article talks about the decision perspective on business rules. It makes some good points, on which I would like to elaborate albeit at a more semantic or knowledge-level. Every language has three kinds [...]

On the heels of IBM’s acquisition of Lombardi comes Progress Software’s acquisition of Savvion. The salient similarities are that IBM is adding BPM applications to its middleware stack as is Progress, at least with regard to its enterprise service bus offerings. More interesting is the relationship between Progress’ complex event processing software and Savvion’s BPM. [...]
